,WARNING - To reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock or injury to
persons while using your appliance
follow basic safety precautions,
including the following:
Read all instructions before
installation or use to prevent injury
and appliance damage.
This appliance conforms to all
uniform safety codes and
regulations.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and pass them on to
any future user.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Correct usage
~Only use the washing machine to
wash items which are specified by the
manufacturer to be machine washable
on the fabric care label. Any other
applications may be dangerous.
~Persons who lack physical, sensory
or mental abilities, or experience with
the appliance should not use it without
supervision or instruction by a
responsible person.
~The washer should only be operated
by trained and qualified personnel.
Public use, such as a laundromat is not
permitted.
Children
~Do not allow children to play on or in
the appliance. Close supervision is
necessary when the appliance is used
near children.
~The drum door glass will be hot
when washing at very high
temperatures.
Do not touch the glass. Danger of
burns! Keep children away from the
washer when in use.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4

Technical safety
~Check the packaging, the washer
and accessories for any signs of
damage. Do not use a damaged
appliance.
~Before connecting the machine,
ensure that the connection data on the
data plate (fusing, voltage and
frequency) match the main electrical
supply. If in doubt contact an
electrician.
~GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord
having an equipment- grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
~WARNING - Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor
may result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
~Installation, repair and maintenance
work should be performed by a Miele
authorized service technician. Work by
unqualified persons could be
dangerous and may void the warranty.
~Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
~Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in
these operating instructions.
~Before servicing, cleaning or in the
event of a fault, disconnect the
appliance from the main power supply.
~Only use a new hose kit to connect
the washer to the water supply. Old
hosing should not be re-used.
~Faulty components must only be
replaced with genuine Miele spare
parts.
~If the power cord is damaged it
must only be replaced by a Miele Ser-
vice technician with a genuine Miele
power cord.
~Under certain conditions, hydrogen
gas may be produced in a hot water
system that has not been used for 2
weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has
not been used for such a period, turn
on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each for several
minutes before using the washing
machine. This will release any built-up
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time, the gas is
flammable.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~This appliance is not designed for
maritime use (e.g. ships) or for use in
mobile installations such as recreational
vehicles or aircraft. However, under
certain conditions it may be possible for
installation in these applications. Please
contact the Miele Technical Service
Department with specific requirements.
~Before the appliance is removed for
service or discarded, remove the door.
Safety
~Do not install or store this appliance
where it will be exposed to the weather.
~Do not install the washing machine
in rooms where temperatures below
freezing may occur.
~Before using the washer for the first
time, remove the shipping struts at the
back of the appliance (see "Installation
- Removing the shipping struts"). Failure
to remove the shipping struts can
damage the washer and surroundings
during spinning.
~Close the water supply if the
machine is to be left for any length of
time (e.g. vacation), especially if there
is no floor drain (gully) in the immediate
vicinity.
~Ensure that no foreign objects are
left in pockets (e.g. nails, coins, paper
clips, etc.) find their way into the
machine with the laundry. Soiling such
as metal shavings, etc. on cloths must
be shaken out before washing. These
may damage components of the
machine (e.g. suds container, drum),
which in turn can result in damage to
the laundry.
~Proper dosing of the detergent will
eliminate the need to descale.
However, if you wish to descale the
machine only use proprietary
non-corrosive descaling agents.
Closely follow the instructions on the
product package.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
6

~Do not wash articles that have been
previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents or other flammable
substances. These articles give off
vapors that could ignite or explode. Do
not add these items to the wash load.
~Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, or other flammable or
explosive substances to the wash
water. These substances give off
vapors which could ignite or explode.
~Do not use cleaning solvents on or
near the machine or the controls.
Contact with cleaning solvents will
damage the surface.
~Do not reach into the appliance if
the drum is moving.
~Do not tamper
with the controls.
Accessories
~Only use genuine Miele
accessories. If unapproved parts are
used, guarantee, performance and
product liability claims may become
void.

remove coarse soiling before placing
them in the drum.
Sorting laundry
^Empty all pockets.
^Tough stains (blood, egg, coffee, tea
etc.) or badly soiled areas (collars
and cuffs) should be pre-treated with
a stain remover or a paste made of
powder detergent and warm water.
Dab stains with a damp light colored
cloth. Do not rub.
^Sort the laundry by color and by care
label. Most garments have a textile
care label in the collar or side seam.
